I have a Cub GT2554 that I bought last May, and it has 14 hours on it. Recently I tried to mow with it and when I engaged the PTO it would "white smoke" the belt from the engine pulley. I had greased the fittings but it seems that a bearing somewhere in the deck has seized up (It's presently at the dealer's in the shop). Has anyone else had a similar problem, and if so what was the cause?

Too many possibilities to list! Can you turn the belts by hand? Visually inspect for anything out of the ordinary like a stick binding the belt or something. Remove the belts and check the freedom of movement of each idividual obstacle the belt has. You should have found your problem by then.

the original query is dated 2007. Where are you digging these old posts up from ?
